The twelfth WDF Europe Cup was held in Veldhoven from 11 to 14 October. The Netherlands will host the WDF Europe Cup for the second time after The Hague in 1984. 21 Countries participate in the men's competition, 19 in the women's competition. For the first time since 1992, this means a decline in the number of participating countries. There are a lot of spectators present at this edition. This is undoubtedly due to the high expectations of the host country. There is a darts hype in the Netherlands since the World Championship titles of Raymond van Barneveld in 1998 and 1999.

Sometimes an event has many surprises, but sometimes it is also just the favourites that make it to the final. The latter is the case in the ladies' pairs tournament in 2000. The Netherlands with Francis Hoenselaar & Karin Krappen and England with Trina Gulliver & Apylee Jones are among the favourites and although they both face a defeat in the group stage, they are sharp as soon as the format is knockout.

The Dutch ladies beat Italy, Scotland and in the semi-finals Sandra Pollet & Vicky Pruim from Belgium. The English duo beat Hungary, Sweden and in the semi-finals, they win against Heike Ernst & Bianka Strauch. The final will not only decide who will win the gold in the pairs, but the winners will also grab the overall title. The final goes to a seventh and deciding leg, which is won by Francis Hoenselaar & Karin Krappen. It is the first time in history that the Netherlands has managed to win the ladies pairs at a WDF Europe Cup and also the first time that a non-British country has won the overall title.
